Smoke and Mirrors

Pros

There’s always plenty of work to keep you busy.

Cons

I can only speak about their EFM business. Per my title, CBRE’s EFM businessis smoke and mirrors. Their salespeople promise completely unobtainable results to the client then throw it over the wall to let someone else drown. They don’t invest in the business or their employees. They talk about retaining talent but don’t offer tuition reimbursement. Raises are non-existent. The politics are a waste of time and resources. Work like balance is garbage. If you want to work your butt off for lower than average money and little to no appreciation then this place is for you. Otherwise there are better firms out there.

Pros

Very nice, stable, hardworking people there.

Cons

Not much chance of advancement. Very large and disorganized. Sometimes it feels very much like you're trying to park an ocean liner in compact car parking space. Also very corporate and uptight. Very few benefits for employees and the insurance is expensive and complicated.

Pros

CBRE provides great opportunities for advancement and is a great place to get exposure to many different companies. Most of the positions are contracted out for another company. This can be good in one way and bad in another.

Cons

Salary is low compared to other companies for the same positions. Being on contract is not always good because if that contract ends you may be without of a job. Benefits are a little expensive.
